âHello?â There is a light knock from my bedroom door as I flip through the pages of the countless papers my grandfather gave me.
âYes?â I call out, not bothering to look up. I hear the door creak open then shut before the thumping of footsteps comes from behind me.
âWhat are you doing, Celeste? I called and texted like one hundred times,â Austin says and then sits down beside me.
âYou have?â
He gives one small nod when I look up, and I check my phone to confirm.
âOh, you did. Sorry, I didnât hear it going off.â I set the small device down and return to my reading.
âWhat could you possibly be reading that has you up at 3:30 in the morning and ignoring me?â
He snatches away the papers on my desk and scans through it. âOkay, who is Antonio Rodriguez, and should I be worried?â
âNo, you donât have to be worried.â I chuckle lightly. âHeâs one of the guys who helped kidnap my uncle. Zeke found his file after I gave him the blood sample we got from the car crash.â
âAnything interesting?â He pulls my chair closer to his while I continue reading where I left off.
âYeah, this dude has done some crazy stuff.â An unladylike snort escapes my mouth. âHeâs a trained assassin that has killed over a hundred people. His specialties are kidnapping and torturing his victims before he shoots them execution style.â
âWhoa! Really?â Austin says in shock as he reads along with me.
âYeah, there are even some crime scene photos to prove it.â I pull out some of the pictures included in the file given by Zeke.
As I lay out the photos, I start catching the words in one of the reports and find something interesting. âHold on. Look at this!â I say, excitement clear in my voice.
âWhat is it?â
âParagraph four in the report, look.â I turn the paper towards Austin and point to the paragraph in question. âIt says here that a couple of years ago, in a span of ten months, victims of torture and mutilation ended up near warehouses. They all had wounds of the same nature, and reason of death was ultimately a single gunshot wound at the center of the forehead.â I pause to let the information sink in. When he doesnât speak, I continue. âNow, get this. On each of the victim, some sort of mattress fiber was found. They were all made from the same material, and they finally traced it back to an old mattress company.
Austin nods and looks at the pictures still. He clearly isnât one to shy away from grisly murders. Iâm pretty sure he has his fair share of spilling blood
âSerial kidnappers and killers have to stick to their routine. This man, Antonio, is the man from Jackâs memories.â I flip to the front page and point to the photo. âHeâs second in command, and he probably agreed to help whoever is doing this with the condition that he could stick to his routine. Kidnapping members of my family was only the beginning.
